Yes, it is a w/d combination unit but the washer bit works properly. *The point is that in a past repair, the manufacturer replaced the wiring but for some reason kept the plastic casing around the connectors which look burned.

I thought that the sensor had gone and spent a large amount of money on a new sensor before discovering this. When I came to replace it, I discovered that the sensor in the unit LOOKS new. So now i am wondering whether it is sending the wrong message to the heater element or whether it is the heater element which has gone bad.

So I was wondering how to test each (or whether something else is bad on this unit)
